A Song of Ice and Fire G.R.R.Martin. Heavy reading; amazing story.0

Hunger and Rage by Jackie Morse Kessler are some amazing books as well as Wicked Lovely by Melissa Marr. Tithe by Holly Black is very good as well. They're all fiction and Tithe and Wicked Lovely have similar fae themes while Hunger and Rage are modern stories about the apocalyptic war horses combined with modern issues - cutting, anorexia etc.
Oscar Wilde's book "The Picture of Dorian Gray" is beautifully written, as are his other works. Invisible Monsters by Chuck Palahniuk is insanely good and his works are worth looking into in my opinion (:
I'm sorry if none of these are really your thing, I'm all over the place with what I read and was trying to think of what I've read recently haha I adore reading as well.
If you have any suggestions for me that'd be great!0 -

hmm suggestions I have are:
Water For Elephants
The Help
Anything Jodi Picoult
I'm reading the girl with the dragon tattoo and so far I love it.
The Hunger Games
I have no idea if those are what you like but they're good ones0 -
The Help was a really good read, one which made me go all over the place emotionally.. If you're a fan Dexter (on Showtime) I highly recommend the series by Jeff Lindsay. I'm currently reading The Namesake, as I loved the movie.. So far the book is good as well.0

Deff. NOT fiction but I just got finished reading it, and feel compelled to share the title if nothing else, Blaming the Victim by William Ryan . . . Such an interesting concept to emerge from the 1970s, but even more relevant to those who understand the sociological structural implications that this book addresses0
-
Eleven by Mark Watson is fantastic! And Rant by Chuck Palahniuk is a good read as well.0
-
The Passage, by Justin Cronin. Also,this one is nonfiction, but Random Family by Adrian Leblanc is amazing, I would highly suggest it!0
-
I just read "Middlesex" by Jeffrey Eugenides, and it was amazing. About to start "The Crimson Petal and the White"
Beyond that - I'm pretty consumed by my Microbiology book right now.0 -
Books you should read:
A Song of Ice and Fire - G. R. R. Martin (Book series, five books thus far, better known as Game of Thrones, the title of the first book)
Neverwhere - N. Gaiman
Fragile Things - N. Gaiman (Collection of short stories)
American Gods - N. Gaiman
After Dark - H. Murakami
A Wild Sheeps Chase - H. Murakami
Dance, dance, dance - H. Murakami
The Dresden Files - J. Butcher (Also book series, modern fantasy, 13 books out I think? Begins with Storm Front)
Discworld - T. Pratchett (Book series, approx. 35 books last time I checked. Laugh-out-loud hilarious books, fantasy)
Metro 2033 - Dmitry Glukhovsky (Post-apocalyptic story set in Russia)
Good Omens - N. Gaiman & T. Pratchett (double goodness )
Or in general, anything by Murakami, Pratchett or Gaiman is worth a read, they're all brilliant authors in their own respects.0 -

I've heard great things about all those books and was even planning to read them once I could get a hold of them. My english teacher my junior year loved Jodi Picoult as well (:
And I can't say the exact author but The Reader is a good book as well (:0
